Interdisciplinary External Funding Opportunities

This website is provided to assist CSBS faculty in identifying potential sources of external funding to support their research. The entries are focused on funding opportunities that are interdisciplinary and/or unique opportunities.

For grant proposal support, please see our Research Resources page.
If you have questions about upcoming RFP's or the application process, please contact IPIA's grant manager, Cindy Brown.

We encourage all to visit IPIA's Seed Grant webpage and apply for a grant today! If you have questions about the Seed Grant procedure, please contact George Hepner.

The Office of Sponsored Projects has created a new set of web pages to consolidate information about funding programs available via the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act of 2009.  Please review this information as it contains special instructions for potential University applicants.  For example, opportunities like the S10 and C06 programs are “Limited Competitions” and will require pre-proposal approval.  Please see the site by clicking here for specific instructions for each agency and program.  In most cases, pre-proposal submission and review will be facilitated using the new Research Portal site.  New information will be added to this reference information as it becomes available.
